    I have strictly followed the install guide but a receive back a message "Not enough disk space to install the PP".
    My C drive has 2 partitions (set-up by HP). No way to modify this? How to solve this?
    Regards

    Hi,

    There is no way to modify the disk partitions, but there must be an error somewhere, as the toolkit is only about 4mb in total and the C: space is 20GB.

    Have you used a Remote Desktop into your server and checked the actual C: drive. Also, you haven't been adding anything else to the Server?

    Hello Asterax,

     

    Did you start the PP1 installer from a server share?
    Please try starting it form the desktop:

    • RDP into your Windows Home server.
    • Copy the PP1 installer to the desktop.
    • Double-click to start.

    After PP1 is installed you can safely remove the PP1 installer file from the desktop again.

    Theo.
